    It seems to be related to .net. Try uninstalling the versions you have and reinstalling from the MS web distributor/installer.

    Hi aduy,
    I'm so thankful for your advice in post #8! I had problems with .net framework for ages and each solution I tried did not lead to the wanted result.. Renaming this folder lead to a succesful installation! Thank you :)
